As much as I LOVE looking at the usual macro pics (some sort of buy hanging out on a leaf), it's nice to see the variety of yours being in flight! -=Prints For Sale at PIXELS=-

MourningDove Member 102 posts Joined Jan 2009 More info | Mar 15, 2009 14:02 | #10 I like this. Bees are super easy to catch in flight around my Rose Of Sharon Shrub in the summer. They love that shrub and there are always lots of them flying around it. I planted several of them very close to my home and it took a while getting used to all those bees. I mainly see the big hairy black ones and the smaller golden bees( nope I don't know their names) lol I used to capture them with my p&s and of course those pics weren't that great...lol
